Vatican Says American Sisters Are Under 'Supreme Direction' Of Holy See : The Two-Way : NPR

Leaders of a group that represents most Catholic sisters in the United States meet with Vatican officials in Rome today. As we've reported, the sisters went to Rome to talk to the head of the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith about a report that found the group was running afoul of church doctrine.Representatives of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, which represents 80 percent of the nation's sisters, told the Vatican that its assessments were based on "unsubstantiated accusations."
